I have recently discovered the work of Jonathan Harris who is an artist and designer based in New York. His book We Feel Fine: An Almanac of Human Emotion presents graphic representations of peoples emotional responses, gathered from thousands of blogs from all over the internet. The book collects and quantifies a mass of data from these blogs, presenting: ' a contemporary portrait of the world's emotional landscape, exploring the ups and downs of everyday life in all its colour, chaos, and candor.'
The way he presents this information is clear and concise but also sensitive to the emotional content, a truly inspirational piece of graphic communication for me.
